Q: How do you build a road on a slope?

• <div><p>Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn&rsquo;t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.</p></div>

Q: What is an ideal driveway gradient?

• <div><p>An ideal driveway gradient is between 2% and 5%. Anything lower than 1% or higher than 15% can cause problems for your car or property. A driveway with less than a 1% slope increases your likelihood of flooding and water damage, while a driveway with a 15% grade or higher can be too steep for safe traveling.</p></div>

Q: How much does 1,500 square feet of asphalt cost?

• <div><p>The average cost of 1,500 square feet of asphalt ranges from about <b>$10,500 to $22,500</b>, depending on location, thickness, base material, and how accessible the job site is to crews and equipment. Keep in mind that your asphalt material cost may vary depending on its type, ranging from porous asphalt to heated blacktop. Standard asphalt costs $7 to $13 per square foot.</p></div>

Q: How good is recycled asphalt for a driveway?

• <div><p>Recycled asphalt is a durable choice for a driveway, but doesn&rsquo;t have the same appearance and low maintenance as standard asphalt. For long driveways in rural communities, recycled asphalt can make a great choice. Recycled asphalt is 20% to 30% percent less expensive than standard asphalt and is better for the environment. </p></div>

Q: Do asphalt driveways crack?

• <div><p>Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-causes-concrete-and-asphalt-driveway-cracks.htm">cause asphalt to crack,</a> including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.</p></div>
